Purpose-built for fast backup and restore, Whitewater cloud storage appliances deduplicate, compress, and encrypt data to reduce storage costs in the cloud. Whitewater appliances enable organizations to easily and securely obtain the benefits of the public cloud's flexibility, scalability, and pay-per-use pricing, without changes to their existing infrastructure. This frees data protection staff from labor-intensive tape backup and management with no disruption to their operations.

"Through integration with Savvis Symphony Cloud Storage, Whitewater cloud storage appliances offer enterprises a modern and flexible choice for backing up their data," said Martin Capurro, vice president of cloud product management at Savvis. "By leveraging these two technologies, companies can secure a cost-effective alternative to tape backup while also gaining unlimited and affordable storage."

Whitewater cloud storage appliances support the industry's most popular data protection applications as well as the leading cloud service provider application programming interfaces (APIs), requiring no expensive integration or complex configuration. Typically, organizations can install Whitewater appliances and begin moving data to the cloud in less than one hour.

"Deploying Whitewater cloud storage appliances with Savvis Symphony Cloud Storage enables organizations to eliminate the administrative burden and costs associated with tape backup. The combined solution offers a low-cost storage tier for backup data sets," said John Martin, senior vice president and general manager, Storage Delivery Group at Riverbed®. "The Whitewater appliances' real-time replication greatly improves disaster recovery readiness, streamlines IT operations, and delivers the performance, security, and reliability that customers require. Customers deploying Whitewater appliances with Savvis Symphony Cloud Storage benefit from fast-and-easy installation, no changes to the existing infrastructure, and world-class support and service."

While the focus and objectives of IoT initiatives are many and diverse, they all share a few common attributes, and one of those is the network. Commonly, that network includes the Internet, over which there isn't any real control for performance and availability. Or is there? The current state of the art for Big Data analytics, as applied to network telemetry, offers new opportunities for improving and assuring operational integrity.

DevOps is often described as a combination of technology and culture. Without both, DevOps isn't complete. However, applying the culture to outdated technology is a recipe for disaster; as response times grow and connections between teams are delayed by technology, the culture will die. A Nutanix Enterprise Cloud has many benefits that provide the needed base for a true DevOps paradigm. In their Day 3 Keynote at 20th Cloud Expo, Chris Brown, a Solutions Marketing Manager at Nutanix, and Mark Lav...

According to the IDC InfoBrief, Sponsored by Nutanix, “Surviving and Thriving in a Multi-cloud World,” multicloud deployments are now the norm for enterprise organizations – less than 30% of customers report using single cloud environments. Most customers leverage different cloud platforms across multiple service providers. The interoperability of data and applications between these varied cloud environments is growing in importance and yet access to hybrid cloud capabilities where a single appl...

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a common and reliable transmission protocol on the Internet. TCP was introduced in the 70s by Stanford University for US Defense to establish connectivity between distributed systems to maintain a backup of defense information. At the time, TCP was introduced to communicate amongst a selected set of devices for a smaller dataset over shorter distances. As the Internet evolved, however, the number of applications and users, and the types of data accessed and stored also evolved. The original intent of TCP was to communicate data in the form of text across computers; today’s data transfer is more complex including high pixel images, audio files, and video delivery.
